Possessing Nothing

< Drymour-4 >

Dirty. Dangerous. Lee Seong-min listened to the words of the Holy Father and felt an unknown feeling. The one to whom the two meanings are mixed is the Deaf Poison Jun. However, the sword that Lee Sung-min knew was not a match for that word.

“I... I'm not sure what you mean. ”

“You seem to have a connection to the sword, but it's not that deep. ”

Holy Father Dowager chuckles. It's true. I've only met Lee Sung-min and Dok Bee-jun a few times in the mountains of Mesh. Baek Sogo and other performers were acquainted with each other by sharing the same time as Dok Bee Jun, but not Lee Sung Min.

“You don't seem to know anything about swords. ”

I couldn't say anything to her. I don't know, it's true

“The Black Eye Poison Jun has been stalking the opponent for the past year. Until now, I've been slaughtering barbarians and mercenaries who wander alone without the doorbell or power of the Small and Medium-Small Factions, not the Old Testament. And they all won. ”

“… I know that… ”

Information about Dobby Jun was purchased through Erebri. However, what Lee bought was information about the ‘location' of the Doak Bee Joon.

“It's not uncommon for a master to suddenly appear in this world. Eria summons people from every dimension for any reason. But that doesn't mean that people who already live in this world are insensitive to new powers. Rather, they take it more sensitively and care. ”

“What... do you mean? ”

“When I found out that Poison Poison Jun was headed for the volcano, I learned about Poison Jun by opening up. Hehe! You don't know anything about nameless wildlings? For the dignity of the doorway? That's just an excuse to talk outside the box. If you are the Black Eye Poison Junk, you are a master at the beginning of the feast. I, too, am a swinger of the sword. I can't help but enjoy the dance with the strong. Nevertheless, there's a good reason why I'm not as good as Poison Jun. ”

Dirty. Dangerous. What Holy Father Doin said did not leave Lee's head. He opened his mouth to Lee Sung-min who was listening to the story with silence.

“He's using a judicial strategy. ”

Holy Father Doin said.

“Ah. Of course, I don't blame you for using the law. I don't deny those who use magic and justice. I was summoned to this world 40 years ago... Hehe! I already understood that this place isn't a middleman for decades. But?

Even so, I couldn't take this. I don't want anything to do with a lawman. I can't accept that their methods are legitimate. ”

That's the end of the conversation with Holy Father Guru. It is over to deliver the letter of the original order of the Fire Ambassador. After leaving Holy Father Doin's room, Lee Sung-min headed to the mountain gate. It wasn't that I didn't want to see the volcano a little more, but it seemed like there was a problem for a stranger to look around the door.

Heading to the mountain gate, Lee Sung-min remembered the words of the Holy Father. Swordsmanship uses law. The technique is dirty and dangerous, so I don't want it to be meaningless. I cannot accept that it is legitimate.

It was nothing you wouldn't understand. Even if he had lived in this world for 40 years, considering the age of the Holy Master, he would have spent much of his youth in the Middle School. He would have been a disciple of the volcanoes and trained as a legitimate practitioner, so he might not have been able to fully accept justice and magic even after 40 years in Eria. Even rational people knew that 'people’ could not change the world and its essence and values so easily.

“Are you done with your business? ”

The sword spoke to me as soon as I came out of the gate. He still crosses his arms and stares at the mountain range. Lee Sung-min felt a little awkward about his eyes, but then nodded his head and replied.

“Yes.”

“Yes."

“... I met Holy Father Guru. ”

Lee Sung-min sighed and opened his mouth. In saying that, the black ear opened its eyes and looked at Lee Sung-min. It was unlikely that Lee Sung-min would meet the master of the volcano, Holy Father Guru.

“... with Holy Father Guru... Khh! When I asked you to meet me like that, you didn't show up. ”

“I... heard why. ”

It was a little hard to say. The Sword has mastered law? Even though I heard that from the Holy Father Guru, it was hard for Lee Sung-min to think it was true. Lee Sung-min's sword was only a sword, and it was the same in his previous memory.

Is it true?

Lee Sung-min doesn't know what a human being is. I've only heard rumors about my past life. I have never researched an unmanned man with the star 'Sword Ear’. In fact, it was the first time that Lee Sung-min learned about the sword, and that the masters, including the sword and the glare, were killed by Wijihoen Xu.

“… because Dobby Jun uses the law, he didn't want to fight. ”

Lee Sung-min's expression was stiff. He looked at Lee Sung-min's face for a moment and looked at the sky. He opened his mouth, carrying his backpack and looking up at the high sky.

“I see.”

Dobby said in a small voice. I'm not denying it. Does that mean that the Vigilante really knows the law? Lee Sung-min couldn't understand a bit, so I took the courage to ask him.

“What law have you learned? ”

He didn't answer. He just looked up at the sky with a swirling eye of unknown emotion.

“Didn't you practice swords on the mountain, Poison Jun? But what law...”

“Have you ever faced the limit? ”

The Vigilante asked.

“Have you ever felt the existence of a wall you couldn't cross, no matter how hard you tried and tried? Have you ever realized that you can never break down a wall, or go over it, or go back? ”

“Yes...”

I tried to answer. However, the Dobby Jun firmly cut off Lee Sung-min's words.

“You're too young to talk about walls. ”

Lee Sung-min's mouth was closed.

“Have you ever felt old? Have you ever felt heavier by the day? My mind remembers its peak, but do you know what it feels like for my body to grow old and not follow him? ”

I couldn't answer. Dog Bee Joon's question was a question of nature that Lee Sung-min could never answer.

“I'm turning sixty. My body has already lost its fullness, and the weaker I get when I swing my sword. I couldn't cross this wall with a single blow on Mt. Mesh. That... despair. Do you know? ”

“… I don't know. ”

“Justice. Yeah. Justice. How could I... rely on such a thing? Do you know? We can't cross the wall, we can't break it, we can't avoid it. My body gets older every day. There's a limit to what we can do inside. However…"

The sword closed its eyes.

“I want more. Do you... know how desperate you are? ”

In the end, he no longer spoke. Lee Sung-min came down from the volcano after watching the silent Poison Ration for a long time. It's not that you can't understand the Poison Ratio. Rather, Lee Sung-min was able to understand the Poison Ratio too well.

So did Lee Sung-min. I couldn't get past the wall, so I gave up. So I tried to rely on barding. I hung on to the familiar and easy basics rather than the ascending skirmish. So I could understand.

But Seong-min is young. He was still twenty-two years old, and the flesh is now at its peak. Unlike such a rational person, she was experiencing old age. At some point, even deep internal air will not be able to withstand the aging of the body. There will be no more anti-aircraft unless you do a rebound. Although studying the mind in the field is important, the body is also important.

There are many great masters in the world. But how many of them did it? Even the Immortal Ambassador or Holy Father Dowager whom Lee saw immediately were masters of Easter skills, but did not react. Their flesh is already aging past its prime.

The sword is just the same. I just didn't want to give up. I just want to forcefully swing my sword with my evil intentions and try to cross the wall with something other than a shaman.

I can't blame you.

It was the same with him.

There was only a difference in time. Lee Sung-min came down from the volcano feeling bad. Lee Seong-min understood the feeling of the Holy Father, the feeling of the sword, and felt right, so she could not say which of the two was right. After all, it was a difference in values.

Lee Sung-min came down to the city and remembered. The memory of Denir, the god of time that the mesh engraved, suddenly came to mind.

There are various gods in Eria. Most gods exist in the temple or in the sanctuary that comes directly to them, and their existence is not completely secret. Even if only the mesh existed right now, it was in her shrine called 'Mount of Mesh’, a place that was famous enough to make sense to the rational people.

But Denner was different. In my previous life, I have never heard the name "God of Time." An unknown and secret god. He felt trembling and nervous because he was going to meet such a creature.

When you arrive according to the memories that come to mind. The sun was already setting, even after the landscape was opened. Lee stopped walking and saw what he saw before his eyes. A little country house in a suburb away from the city center. This was a place that matched the memory of the Mesh.

Is there a Denner here? ’

Lee leaned his head toward the door with curiosity. I did not have any doubts because the memory was clear. Lee hesitated for a moment and approached the door.

“Huh?"

It was a moment to catch the door hook. Lee Sung-min's eyes opened wide. Until just now, I tried to grab the door hook, but the door hook wasn't there when I tried to grab my hand. Seong-min was just a few steps away from the door.

Lee Sung-min was a little embarrassed, but he approached the door hook again.

Again, the door hook wasn't there when I tried to grab the door hook. Again, Lee Sung-min was a few steps away from the door ring. Again and again, the same thing.

“W-what? ”

Lee was embarrassed and looked around. I can't reach the closed door.

[Go back.]

I heard a voice in Lee Sung-min's ear. It was an unknown voice of gender.

“W-who are you? ”

[Go back.]

The owner of the voice does not answer questions. Lee Sung-min was convinced that the owner of the voice was Denny. God is the only one who can do wonders beyond this understanding.

- Someday, if you get the chance, go to Drimoor. Tell Denir, the god of time who was there, that the Mesh has come.

Reminds me of what the Mesh said. Lee immediately opened his mouth and said.

“Mesh sent me. ”

[…]

Denire is silent. After a while, Denir mutters to Lee Sung-min's head.

[Damn it.]

The door is open.
